Great inspiring stories. I have a bi-cuspid aortic heart valve and will someday need replacing. I am very active. I dance and teach ballet and take aerobic classes. Being active is such a big part of my life. I notice when I exercise vigorously I feel short of breath and my head starts to hurt. I know any surgery carries some risk, but I look at the bright side and think about how wonderful it will be when my heart is working at full capacity. Thank you everyone for sharing your stories.
